Patient's question:
I took birth control pills this morning, and now I have some skin irritation. Did you get skin irritation after taking birth control pills? Is it because you're pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, skin peeling after taking oral contraceptives is a normal situation, because emergency contraceptives have a high hormone content. Stopping oral intake can lead to skin peeling. This neither indicates successful breastfeeding nor proves successful breastfeeding. Only the absence of a normal menstrual period can prove successful breastfeeding. So you don't need to worry, just wait and see. When skin peeling occurs, pay attention to hygiene. If your menstrual period comes back after one month, then it means everything is fine.
